Valentine’s Day Presents To Myself – 40% Off Missguided

Hey, beautiful people! Does anyone else ever feel like life happens all at once? It’s simultaneously great and super fucking annoying.

Case in point: I just started a new job (which I’m actually really enjoying; I know, shocking). It’s 3 days a week, the pay’s great and the work itself is flexible and pretty creative. I’m a happy trucker. This sounds good, right?

But, quite literally the day I started, another job opportunity came a-knockin’. Two days a week in the office and one from home. Again, the pay’s great – and it’s only for a couple of months. (If I do it; I don’t know if I’m that dedicated to the hustle. But when I say the pay’s great . . . the pay is great.) I could balance both . . . technically. It’s more “do I want to?”. Helpful hint: fuck no.

Look, the point of this is just to say sorry I haven’t been too active – I’ve been sorting all of that out, working, getting my new tattoo, etc. Life never seems to stop, which on one hand is great because your girl isn’t looking to die any time soon, but on another is kind of stressful because I really miss reading everyone’s content. And I’ve had no time to write!

Anyways, I was sitting at my dining room table, kind of freaking out about how much there is to do and procrastinating via checking my email inbox, when . . .

A heavenly sign!

Well, an email. A sale alert, actually – 40% off at Missguided. And suddenly . . . a post idea appears! A wishlist, nay – a “to buy at some indetermine point in the future” list. Plus, I mean, Valentine’s Day is coming up somewhat soon, so I can throw that in the title and pretend that this is on-trend, seasonal content instead of a last-minute, hastily written post.

Without further ado, I wish you all a big welcome to today’s post: a wishlist/list of things I may possibly buy myself as a Valentine’s present from me to me.

Here are just a few of my top picks (I may or may not have added those green jogging bottoms to my cart . . . don’t tell my bank account, please) from Missguided at the moment! I apologise for this being such a short post, but after the essay that was my Wowcher post (SEO issues) I thought something more light and fun was in order!

I hope you guys got some shopping inspo – are you going to getting yourself any Valentine’s Day pressies? Have you checked out the Missguided 40% site-wide sale? What were your favourite of my picks? Let me know your thoughts down below!

I always buy something to myself for my B day and Valentines day, maybe it’s weird but we gotta treat ourselves while we are young and free haha. I love that set of pjs, it’s so classy but sexy at the same time. xx

That red satin set is very much needed in my life – and you look bangin in that try on haul gal! And omg I’m so glad you like your new job, I reckon I might start searching for a second one sometime pretty soon when uni starts, I need to hustle a bit harder for the lifestyle I’m trynna live haha, great post as always xx

It is okay to take a break from reading others’ posts and commenting. Then when you do, it becomes more about pleasure than some annoying chore. Congratulations on not just one, but two jobs, you are friggin’ ‘awesome’ (getting some American lingo under mah wings), pretty one. My picks are the floral trousers and dress and the grey lace-up jogger. xx

That’s very true! I definitely missed having that time to check in 😭 and thank you lovely! I really don’t know how I’m going to balance both but my bank account will be happy at least 😭 and ooooh nice! Hope you have a great Valentine’s Day!xx

A happy bank balance can make all the difference though they may tell you otherwise 😉 Luxuriate in it darling! I shall make sure I have a nice Valentine’s Day though I am not big on it. You have a lovely one too.xx

I freaking love missguided but I always just buy their brand off depop users lol
and what the heck, my favorite was the green embroidered joggers too. her whole outfit is amazing! Wish you luck on your new jobs!

Huge congrats beauty on starting a new job and the other job offer. Also hugs, don’t worry sometimes life does get in the way, but it makes it when you do post all the more special! I love that you made a wishlist! While I love presents, I love splurging on myself. I feel like I have taken the adulating world by storm when i can spoil myself! And girl I am obsessed with your wishlist! That pajama set is stunning! AND I love those joggers! SO stinking cute! <3

Thank you lovely! And I love that perspective, I’m going to have to adopt it more 😀 TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU! Presents are great, but presents to myself I really feel like I’ve earned and it’s like a “well done for adulting, have a reward!” almost. And thank you lovely, I want literally everything! <3
